Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to diagnose sound issues on my newer HP laptop (a Canadian series pavillion tx2524ca). Sounds works with the snd_hda_intel driver, using the realtek chipset, but only under certain conditions. Mic input does not work at all at this point Description of functionality Sound output only works with model=toshiba or model=acer. The front of the laptop has two headphone jacks, an SPDIF optical, and a microphone. The headphone sense works with the middle jack, but only using model=toshiba The laptop also has a built in mic (identified as "Front Mic"). This doesn't work at all The mic jack (identified as "Mic", physically located beside speaker and SPDIF at the front of the laptop) works for passthrough (if I turn up the output volume I can hear the sounds from the mic), but not for recording/input. I'm hoping that some of the info provided below might provide enough info the debug this situation, but if more info is needed please let me know. Thanks, TJA Debugging/testing The kernel is currently 2.6.26.5 ALSA driver versions from the kernel-included up to the latest RC haven't had any different results $> aplay -l card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 0: ALC268 Analog [ALC268 Analog] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 card 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], device 6: Si3054 Modem [Si3054 Modem] Subdevices: 1/1 Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 (this matches XP which identifies it as a Realtek chipset) $> lspci -vv 00:14.2 Audio device: ATI Technologies Inc SBx00 Azalia Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Unknown device 30f1 Control: I/O- Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- Status: Cap+ 66MHz- UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=slow >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- Latency: 64 Interrupt: pin ? routed to IRQ 16 Region 0: Memory at d2400000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Flags: PMEClk- DSI- D1- D2- AuxCurrent=55mA PME(D0+,D1-,D2-,D3hot+,D3cold+) Status: D0 PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME- And some CODEC info from ALSA diagnostics.
